I think Thomas Jefferson once noted that
there's nothing like gardening for the failures, and the successes that make

"No occupation is so delightful to me as the culture of the
earth, and no culture comparable to that of the garden. Such a
variety of subjects, some one always coming to perfection, the
failure of one thing repaired by the success of another, and
instead of one harvest a continued one through the year."

Thomas Jefferson, 1811
